I have a stock driver's seat for the 53 I am not using.
This seat is 12" off the floor. I have four Caravan seats from early 80's but sit about 2.5" higher than stock. A solution would be to zip cut the floor and install new plate and the right height. This causes issues with the final inspection on the vehicle.
Also, any rear seats, like two more Caravan buckets would also be sitting up too high. Has anyone found solutions for seats? cheers

I may have mentioned this earlier but anyway, I used '03 King cab front bucket seats. They bolted right to the seat riser and sit well. Driver side is electric. I also like them because they are a nice package deal. Seat belts integrated into the seat and both seats have fold up arm rest.
Sorry, no help on the rear seats but I have read where some folks use Escalade, Explorer, and Yukon/Tahoe seats.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
